Key Light On while driving
So today when i was about to leave my house to go get a new set of brake pads, i was lazy and didnt want to go back to my room to get my set of keys so i grabbed my extra set and went into my car. When i stuck in my key, the key light, maintence light, srs, blah blah all goes on and goes off after a few seconds, after i start the car the key light started to flash, at first i thought it'll go off, but after 5 mins of driving it was still flashing and i knew something was wrong. So i went home and got my other set of keys ( daily used one ) and put it in and the light still goes off 4/5 times i turned on my engine. I called Honda and they said maybe i had too much bling near my key... which i only had a keychain, so i took it off and it worked the first time (1/5). when i tried my other key again, the light went off again, and now....5/5 times it goes off. Any ideas how to fix this? i went to honda personally and they just told me to get it diagnosed for $95....didnt really help at all. Hope you guys can help me. Thanks

Re: Key Light On while driving
its the immobilizer, means it cant read the code from the key. use the key by itself and dont keep it near any other coded keys.
